I agree, actually! I never thought of it as "head vs heart" before, but that is essentially how I present stuff to T sometimes, that I FEEL like I must say something, even tho the WORDS sound like a cliché. So thanks for this convo! I like adding "my heart says" to my vocabulary
Also, I'm sorry this is triggering, but that might not necessarily be a bad thing, although I can understand if you want to "save" these triggered or uncomfortable? feelings for your session, instead of writing them out here or in a journal.
